It's as bullshit as when they 'helped' the alkali metal reactions in Brainiac by adding explosives. For a review show to present what they expect to happen as fact, without bothering to test what actually happens is worthless and deceptive. Why have a test track at all, if you're just going to recite numbers out of a spreadsheet for your results?
Yet, all your examples are exactly that. You have a choice of which car you want to buy, but you don't get to individually pick all of it's components unless you get something custom built.
That's an even worse idea. You might be able to keep a shuttle up there if you just shut everything down and let the rest of the ISS take care of power and oxygen, but if you want to keep it capable of flying again there is no way it can stay up there for more than a couple weeks.
Invisible expect for the whole fact that you're now so bright in IR that people could spot you from another planet, not even mentioning all the other EM noise emitted.
You may be slightly less visible on radar, but you're screaming "I'M HERE!!!!" in so many other ways it doesn't matter.
Yes. Being intentionally precise is not difficult. A fire accidentally setting off each explosive within the tiny fraction of a second required is incredibly unlikely. This is not a difficult concept, if you pull your head out of your ass.
Even if the core had been loaded, HE-implosion based nuclear bombs require incredibly precise timing of the explosives to compress the core to criticality. You could never get a nuclear detonation from a bomb in a fire. It is essentially impossible to detonate one of these unless you do it on purpose. It would have been a dirty bomb, yes, and dangerous. But 6 figure immediate death toll? Only if you have no concept of how these bombs work.
The software is dead. The board has resigned. The primary developer says the software in use now was never meant to be secure. It was an early testing version, and should never have been distributed.

If you're circuit racing and can't afford to compete - the situation these tests involve - maybe you shouldn't be there.
How isn't it deceptive?

And the number of users who will bother with that can be counted on one hand.
So he's hiring people that think outside the box by not hiring people that think outside of his box.
The guy is just a moron who has no idea what he's talking about.
Hahahahaha
Working for this moron would be a pretty bad choice, so I think that would be a plus.
That you think it is a single point of failure is another reason not to hire you.
...you realize C# is .NET, right?
It is pretty safe to say that not a single one of the all veteran and highly experienced shuttle crew would want to freely associate with you.
It's going to make it pretty hard for the rest of the crew to get down when there are no spacecraft there after the shuttle crew takes them all.
Don't bring facts into this.

Wasn't there a Sci-Fi TV series (or at least a pilot) about something like this?

It's also hard to fit 6 people in a three person soyuz.
The orbiters are not capable of staying in space for longer than about two weeks.
Completely changing all devices would be so much simpler than completely changing all devices (Many of which have already been changed)! Brilliant!
Because child rape is JUST LIKE bundling IE in windows.
Wow, people sure are butthurt. Gates has done more good than every single poster here put together.

Haystack was designed to circumvent government censorship in Iran. If it doesn't work, it can get people killed.
